Nathan Bernard "Sonny" Hool (28 January 1924 in Dublin, Ireland - 10 October 1988 in Belfast, Northern Ireland) was an Irish cricketer. A right-handed batsman and Left-arm orthodox spin bowler, he played fourteen times for the Ireland cricket team between 1947 and 1961, including nine first-class matches. Hool made his debut for Ireland against Scotland in May 1947 in a first-class match. Whilst it was an unsuccessful match with the bat, scoring a duck in each innings, he was successful with the ball in the Scottish second innings, taking 5/73 with his left-arm spin. He continued the year with matches against Yorkshire, the Craven Gentlemen and Derbyshire before a match at Lord''s against the MCC where he took 5/19 in the only MCC innings, his best bowling figures for Ireland.
